The tale of a happy dog on a P\u00e9nichette\u00ae<\/h2>\n\u00a0<\/strong>\n\nThe family\u2019s all together for the summer holidays, and this summer you\u2019re cruising on one of Locaboat\u2019s famous P\u00e9nichettes\u00ae. But no holiday is complete without your feathered or furry friend! Luckily, they\u2019re welcome on our boats, and are totally safe during your cruise on the inland waterways.\n\nHere\u2019s the story of Locadog<\/em> who tells us all about his first time on board and talks about his favourite doggy memories!\n\n \n

An incredible vacation with his dog aboard a barge<\/h3>\n \n\n\u201cI was promised unlimited space, and best of all I was promised lots of splashing around and endless walks\u2026and I certainly wasn\u2019t disappointed! People here are very kind and friendly: I get petted by everyone I meet \u2013 it feels good to be on holiday. Walking across the gangplank from the mainland we arrive in our cosy floating nest, where I find all the home comforts right here: a snuggly sofa and a big living room. Things look even better when the windows are opened: by using the side decks I can stand guard for the family, as well as grabbing a few naps up there. We dive into the water a few times during the week \u2013 I\u2019m never the last one in \u2013 and there\u2019s plenty of peaceful, easy cruising along the way with some wag-tastically wonderful walks to stretch my legs. I always manage to sniff out new surprises during our walks, and everyone loves them \u2013 I become an excellent guide and mascot for the whole crew. We\u2019ve also had a great time meeting new people, I feel free and happy here, and I\u2019m also better behaved and listen more. Everything is going well, I am completely safe and there\u2019s no risk to me thanks to all the safety equipment and the guard rails that stop me from falling overboard. On the way back home I\u2019m already planning the next explorations we could all enjoy together with Locaboat, but meanwhile I\u2019m holding onto my captain\u2019s hat!\u201d\n\n \n

Getting the most of travelling with your dog: what you need to know!<\/h3>\n \n\nTop destination:<\/strong> France<\/a>. This is the area with the greatest number of stopover points that welcome four-legged friends.\n\nTop boat:<\/strong> the P\u00e9nichette\u00ae Terrasse<\/a>. The covered outside area looks directly into the living space so you can always keep an eye on what\u2019s going on outside.\n\nDon\u2019t forget to bring:<\/strong> blanket, dog basket, bowl and other playthings. Remember all of your canine companion\u2019s usual bits and pieces.\n\nBe prepared:<\/strong> you will be asked to pay a small supplement so that your furry friend can join the crew.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
